Form 49 Ceramic Bowls Design Within Reach founder RobThis design celebrates plants without a flowering element, by taking the form of a blossom itself. The two nesting vessels look, in profile, like a trumpet flower, with the inner stamen emerging beyond the edge of the outer petals. The glaze is very rich and textured from the outside, with a plain one on the inside. The plant rests on the simpler portion, while the texture of the outside becomes complementary to the texture of the plant. Tung Chiang
